There she earned contracts with the Actors Theatre of Charlotte, the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival, Epic Arts Repertory Theatre and the Children's Theatre of Charlotte as well as many other regional companies.In addition to having received several award nominations for her stage roles, Shon has also developed a prolific body of work in film and video.
